* `fields(columns: Union[List, str, set, dict]) -> QuerySet`

## QuerysetProxy methods
|

|

When access directly the related `ManyToMany` field as well as `ReverseForeignKey`
|
||||
returns the list of related models.
|
||||
|
||||
But at the same time it exposes subset of QuerySet API, so you can filter, create,
|
||||
select related etc related models directly from parent model.

|
||||
### fields
|
||||
|
||||
Works exactly the same as [fields](./#fields) function above but allows you to select columns from related
|
||||
objects from other side of the relation.
